Things to do in Phnom Penh
Located at the confluence of three rivers - the Mekong, the Bassac and Tonle Sap, Phnom Penh is the vibrant capital of Cambodia. Famous for its rich cultural heritage, proudly nurtured and preserved by citizens and authorities, Phnom Penh has become one of the most visited destinations in Cambodia. A great number of lovely French colonial buildings dotted along the streets of Phnom Penh contribute significantly to the charm and elegance of the city, also known as "Pearl of Asia".Among the city's must-visit gems is the Royal Palace, one of Phnom Penh's most splendid architectural achievements, created to serve as the residence of the King of Cambodia. The Royal Palace complex and attached Silver Pagoda consist of several impressive buildings and gardens overlooking a riverfront park.
